The Sixers traded the Camden native, who played at Lenape High School, to the Golden State Warriors on Friday for Gerald Wallace and a 2016 NBA draft consideration.

The Kings traded him to Philadelphia earlier this month, as part of a deal designed mostly to clear salary-cap space. That apparently was part of Golden State’s motive, as...

The local product won't suit up for Philadelphia. It seems as though Jason Thompson's tenure in Philadelphia will end before he ever put on a Sixers uniform. The Golden State Warriors announced the former Lenape High School alum in exchange for veteran swingman Gerald Wallace, cash, and draft considerations. Keith Pompey is reporting that the consideration is the right for the Sixers to swap Miami's or Oklahoma City's first-round pick for the Warriors' 2016 first-round selection.

The journeyman is set to enter his 15th season with his sixth NBA team. Besides his contract, Wallace may not have much to provide for Golden State. When the Golden State Warriors swapped David Lee for Gerald Wallace and Chris Babb, their primary intent was to minimize the luxury tax bill created after Draymond Green inked a lucrative deal this offseason. Additionally, when factoring in Lee's desire for a fresh start and larger role, it was only a matter of time before a trade would go down. In dealing Lee for Wallace, Golden State saved roughly $24 million in total as our own Sam...

David Lee, Jae Crowder deals completed, Jonas Jerebko, Amir Johnson, and Perry Jones III all introduced. The Celtics front office was very busy today. They made several roster moves, but most of them have been known about for weeks. Amir Johnson and Jonas Jerebko officially signed weeks ago but the team waited until the rest of the transactions were complete to introduce them to the fans. That seems fitting since all the moves this summer essentially added or maintained depth for Brad Stevens's squad. The David Lee trade was made official today (so long Gerald Wallace and Chris Babb)....

Thomas Robinson is a player the Nets have always wanted and the Nets are a team Thomas Robinson has always wanted to play for. And now, finally, they got it done. The Nets had scouted him extensively in 2012 when he was at Kansas but then went for Gerald Wallace at the deadline and traded the pick.

Common thought suggests they'll waive their cap holds and trade exceptions to sign Amir Johnson using cap space, but the Gerald Wallace for David Lee trade opens up the possibility of them retaining their exceptions to give them more trading versatility going forward this summer. The Lee trade isn't even done yet, according to Steve Bulpett of the Boston Herald, who adds that the Celtics are "hard at work on potential...

And if you've been following this site for any amount of time throughout all of that speculation, you know that that trade is not entirely about the Warriors improving as a team — this was primarily about the Warriors making cuts from their 2015-16 payroll and (perhaps) secondarily, doing David...
